East Asia Program

In 2025, the East Asia Program (EAP) celebrates our 75th year as Cornell’s hub for research, teaching, and engagement with East Asia. EAP serves as a forum for the interdisciplinary study of historical and contemporary East Asia, with over 45 core faculty and numerous affiliated faculty, graduate, and undergraduate students from schools and colleges across Cornell.
